3 Truths About the Chicago Bears of 2007
1. The defense is overrated, and has trouble stopping the pass AND the run.
2. The offense, when Rex Grossman is on the field, is equally inept.
and
3. Devin Hester is the best return man in the history of professional football.
No Devin Hester today, and that Chicago team gets beat by three, maybe four touchdowns. As it is, they’re still alive (but will miss the playoffs anyway) thanks to Hester.
Any team that kicks the ball to this man the rest of the season needs to fire their head coach, special teams coach, punter, and kicker immediately. During the game. I mean seriously, we all know Mike Shanahan is a cocky coach, but there’s a fine line between having big brass ones and being certifiably nuts. Shanahan crossed the line into certifiable today, without a doubt.
Oh, and if I were the Bears, I’d refuse to accept this “victory”. They have followed up being the weakest Super Bowl entrant ever with being the weakest 5-6 team ever. Without Hester, this team is 2-9 at best. And as long as Lovie Smith (dumbest coach this side of Minnesota’s Brad Childress) sticks with Grossman, the Bears will remain mediocre at best, awful most of the time.
